Lala and “pod” have such a wonderful range which makes this podcast so amazing to follow every week. They are silly, lighthearted, unafraid to talk serious or trivial topics, go deep and then laugh and be goofy all over again. Lala speaks her mind freely and is really inspiring for her strength, perseverance, growth, and generosity. I love how she cares for her family and team. And listening to the Burningham giggles just makes my workdays more bearable. Jess is a sweetheart too! In a world over saturated with podcasts, this is a real diamond. And while I love the VPR thoughts/updates Lala’s podcasts stands alone and I would listen to it whether Lala talked VPR or not. I’m interested in Lala’s journey and perspective regardless of the show and I don’t feel that way about any other VPR cast podcast besides Stassi). Xoxo
